The  object  of  this  book  is  to  supply 
our  patrons  with  information  generally 
desired  by  travelers  regarding  their 
routes,  and  to  do  it  in  a  brief,  business- 
like way,  leaving  the  flights  of  fancy  to 
builders  of  "Castles  in  Spain."

too  numerous  to  mention.  Thirteen  miles  from 
the  city  is  located  the  magnificent  bathing

the  finest  salt-water  bathing  resort  in  the  world. 
During  the  bathing  season  trains  leave  every 
hour. 

Great  Salt  Lake  is  ninety  miles  in  length 
and  forty-five  miles  wide,  with  numerous  islands 
to  add  to  the  general  interest.  The  bathing  is 
superb,  one  cannot  sink  on  account  of  the 


density  of  the  water,  which  contains  twenty-two 
per  cent  solid  matter,  or  sixteen  and  two-thirds

From  a  rambling  village  a  few  years  ago 
Salt  Lake  City  is  fast  becoming  a  metropolitan 
city  in  every  sense  of  the  word.  Bountifully 
endowed  with  parks,  drives,  magnificent  streets 
and  lovely  homes,  destined  to  become  one  of 
the  greatest  sanitariums  of  the  world.  The 
population  is  cosmopolitan  and  steadily  increas- 
ing. There  is  no  uncertainty  in  its  future;  it  is 
bound  to  be  a  great  inland  city.  Natural  gas  in 
abundant  quantities  now  in  use,  both  for  light-

The  Green  River,  from  which  the  town  derives

which  has  its  confluence  with  the  Grand  some 
ninety  miles  below,  where  they  form  the  Colo-

Green  River,  is  located  the  famous  placer 
ground  on  which  a  $60,000  plant  ha  s  been  erected. 
The  ground  is  very  rich.  This  is  the  outfitting

One   of    the   greatest   health   and    summer

most  remarkable  and  extensive  hot  springs — 
ten  great,  and  countless  small 
^"springs        ones  of  great  curative  proper- 
Alt.  5,758  feet        ties-      The  larSe   springs  are 
Og.  417  miles         estimated  to  send  forth  every 
minute  8,000  gallons  of  water,  which  is  thirty 
times  the  outflow  of  the  Hot  Springs  of  Arkan- 
sas.    The  largest  spring,  named  the  Yampa, 
gives  out  4,000  gallons  of  water  per  hour.    The 
extreme    temperature     of    the    water    is    124 
degrees.   The  properties  of  the  water  are  alka- 
line,  saline,   sulphuric,   chalybeate,  calic  and 
thermal.    Amid  lawns,  drives  and  terraces  is 
situated  Glenwood's  magnificent  bath  house, 
constructed  of  red  stone;  the  edifice  having  cost 
$220,000.     The   "Big   Pool"    is   unique    among 
Glenwood's   attractions.      It  is   750  feet   long, 
from  65   to  no  feet  in  width,  with  a  gradual 


depth  of  from  four  to  six  feet.  The  pool's  tem- 
perature is  95  degrees  Fahrenheit,  and  all  the 
year  around  hundreds  throng  here  to  enjoy  a 
plunge  in  the  warm  waves  open  to  the  sky. 

The  one  thing  necessary  to  make  Glenwood 
Springs  the  most  magnificent  summer  resort  in 
the  world  has  been  accomplished  by  the  erec- 
tion of  the  Hotel  Colorado,  at  a  cost  of  $350,000. 
The  Colorado  is  constructed  of  peach-blow 
colored  stone  and  Roman  brick.  The  hotel  is 
built  around  three  sides  of  a  large  court,  124 
feet  square.  In  locating  the  building,  advan- 
tage was  taken  of  the  natural  slope  of  the 
ground,  thus  enabling  the  court  to  be  terraced 
and  adorned  with  fountains,  paths,  grass  plats 
and  beds  of  flowers,  affording  delightful  prom- 
enades and  commanding  extensive  views.

a  marvel  of  engineering. 

Named  for  General  John  C.  Fremont.      The

its  tortuous  climb  of  the  west-

tions and  two  engines  put  on 
each  section  to  pull  to  the  sum- 
mit.
